Enderby Murders case

DNA profiling was invented by a British Scientist. In a case known as the Enderby Murders, in 1986 DNA profiling helped exonerate an ‘innocent’ suspect.

It did not help Peter Sullivan’s case, that apparently he eventually signed a confession. How ever I suspect that was made under ‘duress.’

Peter Sullivan was convicted in 1986 but went on to proclaim his innocence.

In 2016 the Criminal Cases Review Commission (CCRC) declined to refer his case to the Court of Appeal.

Questions must surely be asked, why has it taken thirty eight years, to establish Peter Sullivans DNA is NOT on the murder weapon? Didn’t the CCRC think in 2016 to establish this fact, that was nine years ago.
